So this view of being able to deliver a picture across a node of nodes is the approach we're taking and I'm confident we can do,” he said.Īquilino discussed how the Pacific Air Forces are experimenting with a new approach to operations called Agile Combat Employment or ACE, which is meant to allow rapid shifts from base to base as a battle develops. We expect to be attacked in that domain and we have to put in place the structure and the formations that allow us to command and control no matter where we are, whether it's inside the first island chain, outside the first island chain, all the way back to headquarters. “We are continuing to work on ways to ensure that our is resilient. The F-35, which can operate as a stealthy attack fighter, reconnaissance aircraft, and even a command-and-control platform for autonomous wingmen, is key to going up against a potential adversary like China, he said. “To do this, it will take the entire joint force,” Aquilino said. Now, Aquilino says, fifth-generation aircraft will need to be defended too-as well as the infrastructure, service members, and supply chains needed to maintain those capabilities.
Guam has a 360-degree threat so our ability to defend it, and to be able to operate from there is absolutely critical,” Aquilino said. “The rocket forces are clearly developing continuous advanced capabilities and longer range.

Aquilino says having fifth-generation aircraft-whether that be F-35s or F-22s-permanently stationed in the theater is “critically important to the ability to deliver deterrence.” “What we are seeing, from my seat, is the largest military buildup in history since WWII.”į-35s have operated from Guam's Austere Airfield since last year, but only on a temporary basis scheduled around key exercises.
